Golf
Thursday, 1 May 2008

Much has been made about how the top poker players love to get out onto the golf course to gamble some more. It seems logical then that Full Tilt Poker have announced they have signed as the title sponsor of the Las-Vegas based World Series of Golf.

Much has been made about how the top poker players love to get out onto the golf course to gamble some more. It seems logical then that Full Tilt Poker have announced they have signed as the title sponsor of the Las-Vegas based World Series of Golf.
Members of Team Full will be well represented in this year's
tournament field with avid golfers and world-class poker players Phil Ivey, David Benyamine, Brandon Adams, David Grey, Allen Cunningham, David Oppenheim, Andy Bloch, Chris 'Jesus' Ferguson, and Erick Lindgren scheduled to participate in the World Series of Golf live event that will be played 12th – 15th May at Paiute Golf Resort in Las Vegas.
Played in a patent-pending method of play, the World Series of Golf allows for high stakes to ride on each and every shot of the tournament. Similar to poker, players must ante up before teeing off at each hole. Depending on the outcome of the tee shots, the player can then raise, call, check or fold on subsequent shots, with the winner of the hole collecting the pot. The result is a competition in which every shot counts, and wagering strategy is just as important as skill. As in poker, when a player no longer has any chips to ante up, that player is eliminated.
The winner of each group moves onto the next round until the final group yields the golfer who is crowned the champion of the World Series of Golf.
